The Mini-PC range covers any type of device, but not all of them are as small and for the basic range as their name suggests. MINISFORUM HX100G is a good example, It is still compact enough, but its performance is very high.

The manufacturer decided on a processor AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS. The modern 4nm development with 8 cores, 16 threads and a maximum frequency of 5.1 GHz, with a TDP from 35 W to 54 W and a generous 16 MB L3 cache, also includes an integrated Radeon 780M GPU.

To improve the graphics subsystem, it includes a dedicated graphics card also from AMD, as Radeon RX 6650M compatible with AMD Smart Access Memory technology. With a TDP of up to 100 watts and 8GB of on-board GDDR6 memory, it can run AAA games up to 1080p with guarantees, and also improves on professional tasks, content editing and complex 3D rendering tasks over integrated. Increasing performance requires more cooling and the HX100G has dual integrated fans, a 7 heat pipe system and liquid cooling.

Another advantage of this MINISFORUM HX100G is its expansion capacity. With two DDR5 memory slots, it supports a maximum of 64GB of 5600MHz dual-channel memory. For storage, add another M.2 2280 SSD slot that supports SATA or NVMe PCIe 4.0 drives for further expansion in addition to the primary M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 SSD.

Pursuant connectivity, this compact includes audio outputs and two USB 3.2 (1 type A and 1 type C) on the front panel. The rear panel includes 2 USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, 1 USB-A 3.2 Gen 2, 2 USB4, 2 HDMI ports, 2.5G RJ45 Ethernet and power input.

All these components are housed in a three-liter carbon fiber chassis, larger than the average Mini-PC, but just as compact. The higher level of performance is reflected in the product price and the MINISFORUM HX100G is available in the following configurations and prices in some regions:

• The bare bone: 719 dollars.
• 32 GB RAM + 1 TB: 905 dollars.
• Barebore: 995 dollars.
